Why didn't Team Rocket just milk tf out of payday?
>>58210070Small indie villain organization, please understand
>>58210070They had a whole episode explaining this
>>58210070pay day doesn't actually generate money, every time you use that move you're telling your meowth to go pickpocket someone for ammo
>>58210070Meowth had to give up Pay Day to get the ability to talk
Meowth says in the anime that he can't Pay Day because he "used up all his smarts" learning how to speak. But considering that we never see any other Meowth or other Pokemon use Pay Day either, and the only time it IS used is by a fictional Meowth in a movie, the move probably doesn't really exist in the anime universe.
>>58210070We have the anime covered, but if you want the game covered, it's a horribly inefficient way of generating profit because you need Level 100 Pay Day users en masse in order to get 500 PokeYen per use of the move, and Level 100 would take a little something called effort since NPCs don't have access to raid bosses who drop EXP candies out the ass.
>>58210087Pay Day is a move in the games.Even in the ashnime there's more than one Meowth.
>>58210070I never considered the implications of Meowth coins being legal tenderEconomy shmeconomy
>>58210115No other Meowth uses Pay Day either though. Closest we get is Meowth using G-Max Gold Rush while Gigantamaxed, but that doesn't generate real coins, they're just coin-shaped projectiles.
>>58210128Sorry, I am reasonable.
>>58210112I was afraid of this answer. But I also realized money doesn't even matter in the pokemon universe
>>58210070It's not about money, it's about power.
>>58210283It's about drive.
